You don't need a pith helmet or a visit to a safari outfitter to join one of our star safaris (warm clothes though are a good idea). Together we travel the Milky Way and beyond. Our regular Stargazing program is about an hour and a half long and introduces you to many of the wonders of the sky. We identify some constellations and asterisms, keeping everyone on the same object by pointing with our special green laser that appears to actually touch the stars. Through the eyepiece of our computerized telescope and handheld binoculars, we visit the nearby objects of our solar system, the Moon, Saturn and Jupiter and maybe even Mars and Venus and Uranus, all depending on the changes of the night sky from season to season, day to day and hour to hour. We continue out to Deep Sky Objects experiencing the beauty of open clusters, the colors, and folds of nebulae and the magnificence of globular clusters. Come winter you need warm clothes up on the mountain.

The ANZAC Memorial Center in Be’er Sheva was built in cooperation with the governments of Australia and Israel, the Be’er Sheva municipality, the JNF, JNF Australia and the CWGC. The Center is located near the cemetery for combatants of the First World War in Be’er Sheva. The ANZAC Memorial Center is a unique place in Israel that tells the story of the soldiers of the ANZAC and their conquest in the land of Israel. Pre-bookings are advisable.

This new museum is an intimate, simple and poignant place that pays fitting tribute to the brave young men who fought, and in several cases died, here. The guided tour (in English) that we and another Australian family were given, together with a film, photographic displays, archival footage and the powerful solemnity of the war graves cemetery, give a good understanding of the events which the Centre commemorates, without overwhelming. It’s advisable to book by phone. I had trouble initially communicating with the Centre. The online email form didn’t seem to work, and the person who answered the phone didn’t speak English. However when I phoned again later I got onto someone who did speak English, booked us for the tour, and gave good advice regarding public transport. We caught the 470 bus from the Jerusalem central bus station and changed to a local bus in Beersheva, aided by google maps. It was straightforward. I think this would appeal to anyone with an interest in history, and especially to Australians, New Zealanders and British visitors.

Unique tour and hosting at the Sculpture garden! Our great love is to sculpt the variety of birds in which the cold steel becomes soft and warm and the work is really alive and breathing. Sculpting is done with great patience and love, when the sculptor receives personal touch and is created from emotion through the hand palms without the use of sketches and measurements.
